  • (if a bug) Were you able to recover from the issue: define recover…out the azoth, so out gold from bottles on trade post. or out the time spent running mats around the game to craft, Also cant post on trade to to earn some coin back, so have i recovered…I think this is my stopping point for a few major patches. SO NO DID NOT RECOVER.

  • What are the steps to reproduce the issue as you experienced:

I believe this is not a bug, but storage is (as the pop-up message says) restricted by weight AND space. Meaning there is a limit of item types (or stacks of different items) in addition to the weight limit.

It’s extremely annoying as there is no way to tell what the limit is and when it is reached UI wise.

Had this issue several times myself, solved it by moving a few small or single item stacks of various items into my inventory (e.g. a few single gems or rare crafting mats which are light). Then I could continue to further use the unused weight storage for already existing items in my storage. Hope this helps until they improve on the interface.

Yeah, they need to increase the amount of unique items from 500 to like 1000 at least. It is really anoying.

Just took the time to count it, 342 items in that storage, 480 in another.
I also took time to move same items from one storage to another to see if that helps.
And oddly it helped with about 1/3 But still can’t hold more then 1864 pounds. A few pounds more then old SS.

lastly items that are in the storage (all refining items) can’t be added with all button, but a few can be added by drag and drop. again this stops at the 1864 pound mark.

next I used bags that do not modify weight of items, to see if that was a problem and well NOPE

Interesting. Never actually counted what the limit is, so personally I can’t confirm the 500 as Majspaj stated above. The only thing I can say is that it is highly confusing if there is no way of telling what the restrictions are, so one can’t efficiently use storage. From what you say, there definitely seems to be something else which isn’t working as intended.

The reason why you can’t use the “all” button for refining items, but only move single stacks, is probably again down to too many unique items types in the “all” bunch, so it won’t let you move all at once.

Super frustrating as you say and also a waste of time and money when one is trying to figure it out. Maybe instead of reporting this as bug the way you did, it should be rephrased or changed to feedback. Chances this gets addressed any time soon though are slim, seeing how much else is broken and in need of revamp (I for my part desperately hope for a proper tradepost revamp and introduction of better chat logs for loot etc.).
